Oh I can imagine. And evangelical is, like you said, a very broad term that’s come to be in some sense reductionist to white suprrmacisf evangelicalism. I left the church for a long time bc of it and ended up back in Lutheranism in part cos those fucks can’t take Christianity from us
Show PostI got the impression that you were a "mainliner" and that's awesome! I'm fortunate to have been going to the same small evangelical church for a long time now so they just think I'm odd. I'm in that 20% of politically active evangelicals who didn't vote MAGA and boy is it isolating
Show PostOK good 💜 and yeah, I could go on and on about this for hours. I can’t go back to evangelical Christianity in the way I grew up with it cos it’s all MAGA now (shoutout to the ELCA for filling in the gap for me)
Show PostLady posting in the local mum group looking for a “biblically-rooted church” and one “without any ‘woke’ teachings” and boy do I have bad news about what’s in the gospel
Show PostI don’t have words to process the depraved and sickening cruelty that was done in the name of the Lord. But I am grateful you are sharing, educating, all of us as painful and shame-filling as it is to read, we need to be reminded why we are where we are sometimes. 😞
